probable repossession

Re: probable repossession

Good point PF, sorry i should have said. We're not paying rent for the next 28 days plus they said we would see our deposit as well. I'm going to ask for it sooner rather than later so we hopefully get it before we move out! x

Great all sorted then and being able to take up bookkeeping again to boot that is great to hear.

Re: probable repossession

Congratulations on getting it sorted!
The aftershocks of the Credit Crunch affect us all in many ways, even when not a home owner, you have to worry about repossession.
Nice to hear everything worked out and you'll get your deposit as well! Not paying the last month's rent has been quite a common thing to do for years precisely for that reason: prior to the protection scheme which is quite recent, it was commonplace for both landlords and agents to keep most of your deposit with any silly excuse like £500 'cleaning fees'!

That's absolutley not true of 99% of Landlords I know because I'm one of them Rachmanism died out a long time ago. I have lost thousands of pounds over the years from tenants who either disappear leaving me with rent arrears owing or trash the place. It's also illegal for tenants to withhold rent from the deposit under the Government scheme. I do hate it when we nice Landlords get tarred with the same brush.

"Landlord of the Year" many times or so my tenants tell me

Thanks Flower. Yes, i'm sure there will be plenty of repossessions this year, sadly.....especially if and when they put the interest rates back up!

I haven't yet received the deposit back, so seeing will be believing, but i'd like to think it will materialise!

Re: probable repossession

Congratulations on getting a result that suits you, there is no point making yourself ill over someone elses house and problems so you are doing the right thing in your circumstances. Good luck saving for the deposit, hopefully the deposit return and not having to pay rent will give you a bit of a start for that
When I moved the charity shops did very well out of me and having turned out loads of stuff meant less packing, moving and unpacking again!

Thanks Susie. No, i didn't see any point in getting involved, it wouldn't have done anyone any good! I've got 3 bin bags of clothes for the charity shop, some good things in there, they just don't fit me anymore! Hope you're keeping well x

Confused,

Well done, just one point what is happening about your deposit that was not protected are you not paying for those last 28 days?

Good Luck

glad to hear things have turn out for you in a positive way,i don't think there is anything more daunting than the thought of losing your home. here you are now talking about a deposit for your own home which is fantastic sometimes life throws s**t in your way to change your perspective,i mean if this reposession hadn't have happened you would be thinking of saving a deposit now. goodluck for the future and just to clarify we do indeed have tea not dinner x

thanks carol, and you're so right....it is tea

Re: probable repossession

Hi confused, and congratulations on your decision.

Anxiety is a terrible thing which can make you seriously ill. You have to put your health first.

I wish you happiness, whereever you may be

thanks diddles...anxiety can be very powerful and for me comes out in physical pain as well as emotional.

fancy...erm...packing a few boxes? i hear you're very good at it x

whatever you decide is best for you
this wasn't your fight so no point in losing sleep and tranquillity over it

I'd pack a bag or two for you but ahhh just too far.......................(I'm a rubbish packer anyway)

hehe thanks Mrs D... x

Hi I'm glad to hear that you have made a decision that you are happy with and that suits your circumstances. God luck with saving for your first real home.

ahh thank you x
